In the supporting structure of thrust loading of bearing the hand gear machine of the present invention, by the track plate with the thrust needle roller bearing make crystal size thin and stable on heating material is arranged, can improve simultaneously that surperficial starting point type is peeled off (surface failures of peeling, the scratch etc.) life-span and inner starting point type is peeled off the life-span.
Specifically, by to the raw-material processing of Bearing Steel, middle carbon steel etc. or the research of heat treatment characteristic curve, can obtain to guarantee the cyaniding tissue (nitrogen-rich layer) of the austinite grain size more than No. 11.By obtaining this tissue, greatly reinforcing phase is for the generation of be full of cracks, the repellence of expansion.Its result, the generation of the top layer that can suppress to cause heating or the surface checking that causes because of tangential force because of slip.In addition, the present application person finds, even the be full of cracks of peeling off for inner starting point type also can obtain suitable long lifetime.
Especially the surface failure of peeling off etc. for surperficial starting point type must form in skin section and has a stable on heating nitrogen-rich layer with what trickle carbide was separated out.In the present invention, owing to separated out nitrogen-rich layer in skin section, and exist more than the retained austenite 5 volume % in this skin section, and the austinite grain size of skin section being more than No. 11, is trickle, so the surface failure that can suppress that surperficial starting point type is peeled off etc.
In addition, the interior retained austenite of nitrogen-rich layer that is present in skin section is the factor that surface hardness is descended, so after cyaniding is handled, must carry out again the processing of heating quenching, make the retained austenite amount be lower than cyaniding processing part by the low temperature of temperature when handling than cyaniding.In the present invention, owing to the retained austenite of this skin section can be suppressed to below the 25 volume %, so can suppress the decline of surface hardness.
With above-mentioned microstructure is that the basis is carried out processing and heat treatment again, gives described top layer compressive stress, further improves hardness, can obtain long lifetime.For these processing and heat treatment, (b1) shot peening, (b2) barreling processing, (b3) rolling finishing, (b4) Carburization Treatment+cyaniding processing, (b5) cyaniding processing+sub zero treatment, (b6) cyaniding processing+secondary quenching+such gimmick of sub zero treatment can be carried out like this, the measure of (b1)~(b6) is made up carry out.
In addition, at least one of described track plate and roller also can be by A 1The above enforcement of transformation point cyaniding is handled, and is being cooled to A then 1Transformation point less than temperature after, be heated to the quenching temperature lower than cyaniding treatment temperature, quench from this quenching temperature.
Carrying out cyaniding in described cyaniding temperature handles the back, is cooled to less than A 1In the operation of point, both can be by cool to room temperature such as oil coolings, also be cooled to the processing of the temperature that austenite metamorphosis finishes more than specified value.Utilize above-mentioned manufacture method, can obtain to have nitrogen-rich layer, the austenite grain is trickle and contains the metal structure of the retained austenite of appropriate amount.Therefore, can improve that surperficial starting point type is peeled off the life-span and inner starting point type is peeled off the life-span, and can obtain to suppress the timeliness dimensional changes the thrust needle roller bearing, bear Vehicular air and regulate supporting structure that supporting structure, the supporting structure that bears the thrust loading of automatic speed variator, the stepless speed changer of the thrust loading of compressor use and the supporting structure that bears the thrust loading of hand gear machine.
Described nitrogen-rich layer handle to form by cyaniding as mentioned above, but also can be with the carbon enrichment on described nitrogen-rich layer, also can not enrichment on described nitrogen-rich layer.
In this microstructure, after once cooling off from the cyaniding processing, owing to quench from the quenching temperature lower than cyaniding treatment temperature, so can obtain very trickle austenite crystalline particle.Sometimes for the order of this processing, be heated to the processing that the quenching temperature lower than cyaniding treatment temperature quench and be called secondary quenching or final the quenching above-mentioned.
In addition, described quenching temperature, but the also skin section of the steel after cyaniding is handled coexistence carbide and/or nitride and austenite temperature province mutually at least.
The heating-up temperature that heating-up temperature during owing to quench is lower than cyaniding when handling is increase when so the amount of the undissolved carbide of the related skin section of the effect that cyaniding is handled and/or nitride is handled than cyaniding.Therefore, quenching temperature is in the occasion of above-mentioned coexistence temperature province, and the ratio of the amount of undissolved carbide increases when handling than cyaniding in quenching temperature, and the ratio of the Ovshinsky scale of construction descends.And, judge that from iron-carbon double equilibrium diagram at carbide (cementite) and austenitic coexisting region, solid solution also reduces along with the decline of quenching temperature in austenitic concentration of carbon.In addition, the employed steel of bearing is because Si (silicon) and Mn (manganese) wait the amount of other alloying element low, so can enough discuss each temperature province accurately and generate layer with iron-carbon binary constitutional diagram.In addition, nitrogen is identical with carbon, as the interstitial element solid solution, and in the temperature province of regulation, generates and to be similar to the nitride that combines with iron of cementite in iron, is similar to identical so can be considered with carbon.
After being heated to quenching temperature, because the amount of undissolved carbide that obstruction austenite grain is grown up and/or nitride is more, so the austenite grain is trickle.By quenching from austenite metamorphosis to martensitic when being organized in above-mentioned heat treatment its concentration of carbon low slightly, therefore, compare with the tissue after quenching from the cyaniding treatment temperature, become the good slightly tissue of toughness.That is, become (c1) its amount more in the past than the undissolved carbide of Duoing, the low in the past quenching structure of (c2) its concentration of carbon ratio.
Above-mentioned quenching temperature also can make 780 ℃~830 ℃.This temperature province almost is applicable to all steel, the control of quenching temperature can be oversimplified.
In addition, in described track plate and roller at least 1, also can before handling, cyaniding implement the such cold rolling processing of punch process.
By using this cold rolling processing, the nuclear generation density of the austenite grain during heat treatment increases, and can obtain sappy structure.
In addition, in described track plate and roller at least 1, also can give 500Mpa above compressive stress.
As mentioned above,, give described top layer compressive stress, further can obtain long lifetime by being that the basis is implemented processing and heat treatment again with described microstructure.
In addition, the austinite grain size sequence number in this specification is meant the austenitic granularity sequence number that defines in the austinite grain size test method of JIS G0551.
Austenite crystal grain in this specification is meant to quench and adds the austenitic crystal grain of pining for after the phase transformation attitude, its refer to by cooling after martensite metamorphosis, as the vestige in past and remaining.
Described austenite crystal grain, thus so long as wait the observable grain of the processing that grain circle is showed circle to get final product to implement corrosion as the metallographic test portion of the member of object.Because be the meaning on the heating grain circle constantly before the low temperature quenching, be sometimes referred to as old austenite grain.Measure also and can be converted into Mean particle diameter from the mean value of the granularity sequence number of JIS specification and try to achieve, also can be by microtomy etc., obtain and the straight line of any direction that metallographic structure is overlapping and the mean value of the gap length between the junction of grain circle, be multiplied by correction factor, make three-dimensional gap length from two dimension.
The mensuration of retained austenite is, with various X-raydiffraction methods, obtains the diffraction intensity of the suitable facial index of austenite phase, gets to wait with ratio from the diffraction intensity of the suitable facial index of ferritic phase and measures.At this moment, the height of also available diffraction crest, the area of also available diffraction crest.In addition, utilizing austenite is that nonmagnetic material, ferritic phase are the phenomenons of strong magnetism body mutually, also can measure by utilizing magnetic sky equality to obtain magnetizing force.In addition, can utilize the testing apparatus of selling on the market to measure simply.
In addition, when described low temperature quenching, the austenite phase transformation attitude arrives martensite etc., but described retained austenite is meant and is carrying out waiting the not remaining not abnormally austenite to room temperature between the abnormal adjacent martensite bundle along different crystal planes.Therefore, the austenite crystal grain with the scope that defines described Mean particle diameter does not have direct relation.
In addition, just to no effect, especially, the rotation life-span that foreign matter is sneaked under the condition descends when the nitrogen content of skin section is less than 0.1 quality %.Just produce if nitrogen content during more than 0.7 quality %, is called the emptying aperture in space, or retained austenite is too much, no hardness, the life-span lacks.For the nitrogen-rich layer that is formed at track plate, its nitrogen content is the value of the top layer 50 μ m of the plane of trajectory orbital after the grinding, and for example available EPMA (the little analyzer of wavelength dispersion type X line) measures.
